This line of hundreds of riders is full of horses and horses. Jiangzhou is six to seven hundred miles away from Chang'an. The official road that travels at the speed of these good horses can usually arrive in three or four days. . But Li Ke was obviously a little anxious, he was ruthless, and ordered to go to Jiangzhou within two days.

Qin Mubai doesn't care. With the strength of Huoyunma's feet, if the weather were not too bad and the roads were too rugged, it would be no problem to run six hundred miles a day. The ancients said that although the "traveling thousands of miles a day" is an imaginary number, it is not difficult to convert it to the current five or six hundred miles.

Jiangzhou is very close to Taiyuan, the place where Li Tangfa’s family originated. During the Wude period, the Jiangzhou General Administration Office was established, and it had more than ten prefectures and counties, including Taiyuan, Jinzhou. Later, Taiyuan was changed to a prefecture and became the northern capital of the Tang Dynasty, and Jiangzhou was reduced to a prefecture. There were five counties under its jurisdiction, but it was still an important state and county in the land of Shanxi, which was valued by people.

This time, Jishan County under the rule of Jiangzhou was the most severely hit.

Qin Mubai and others rushed to fly horse, and they clearly felt different weather when they stepped into Jiangzhou. You can often see many people migrating in groups on the official roads to support the old and the young.

Zhenguan Datang has always been a peaceful and prosperous time for people's livelihood, and such scenes are very rare. Li Ke, Quan Wanji and others were shocked. Stopped the team, they called a few refugees to question. Seeing that they were elegantly dressed and armed with soldiers, the homeless people naturally understood that they were officials, so they wept bitterly and said that Zhu Chengwen, the magistrate of Jishan County, forced them out of their homes. They were rather helpless. Wandering out to find another place to live. But the house and land are gone, and I don’t know how to live in the future.

Li Ke asked again, what happened to the flood there. The refugees replied that in the two days between the day before yesterday and tomorrow, nearly 10,000 soldiers from Jiangzhou Mansion and nearby mansion rushed in, and the flood has been temporarily relieved. However, there were no one to settle the victims in piles. When more than a hundred soldiers and horses had no food to eat, they came to rob the people’s only grain, even the seeds and cattle for the coming year.

Now, the entire Jiangzhou has become a mess, like a chaotic world. Officials are busy shirking responsibility for inaction, and the soldiers connive to privately plunder the people. Among them, the situation in Jishan County is the most serious.

Li Ke and Quan Wanji became angry after hearing these words. Li Ke turned on his horse without saying a word: "Go, go to Jishan!"

Qin Mubai has been following Li Ke without saying a word. On public occasions, he understands his identity and responsibility-Li Ke's disaster relief. He is responsible for protecting Li Ke and the local officials and generals.

When Galloping Horse walked out for a while, Qin Mubai saw Li Ke's anger calm down, and said, "Your Highness, the situation in Jishan County is rather strange."

"How to say?"

"Since the flood has been relieved, the county magistrate should cooperate with the state officials and government soldiers to help the people and settle the lives of these victims. But instead of doing this, the county magistrate drove the people away. Don’t you think Is this unusual?"

"That Zhu Chengwen is probably tired of living." Li Ke snorted coldly, "Isn't he afraid of the imperial prestige falling to pieces when he abuses the people like this?"

Qin Mubai shook his head: "If I were Zhu Chengwen, I would certainly understand this. But why should I do this?"

Li Ke was taken aback, turned his head and asked: "Why?"

"That's because, I must have unspeakable difficulties." Qin Mubai said, "I would rather risk being punished by the king, and have to drive away the people of Jishan and move away from here. Block place."

Li Ke's brows moved, and he was silent for a moment, and said: "Then you mean that Jishan County is still very dangerous now?"

"It's possible." Qin Mubai said, "His Royal Highness, think about it, since the floods have been eliminated, you should quickly rescue the people, rebuild houses and rectify farmland. But Zhu Chengwen didn't do this and he drove the people away. ----Attention, it’s a rush, not a relocation! In other words, it must have not been approved and arranged by the higher-level state government，
